Micro-check

Zhou Xun hurriedly called Zhou Ning. Zhou Ning was having a meeting in the company. After all, it was the end of the year and she was very busy with various things.

Seeing Zhou Xun's call, he got up and hid in the corridor outside to answer it: "Zhou Xun, what's the matter?"

When Zhou Xun heard his deliberately lowered voice, he knew that he was busy in the company. At the end of the recent year, because Zhou Ning was very busy, the time for the two of them to talk on the phone at night was shortened, not to mention that it was afternoon.

Zhou Xun said, "Did I bother you?"

Zhou Ning said: "I'm having a meeting, what's the matter, is there something urgent?" Zhou Xun's tone was both impatient and hesitant, Zhou Ning couldn't hear it.

Zhou Xun said: "I want to ask you to do me a favor. Is it not convenient for you? You are so busy now, and I still come to disturb you."

Zhou Ning knew that Zhou Xun had always been so polite. Even though they had been together for so many years, they had a deep relationship and they both knew each other, but Zhou Xun couldn't get rid of this kind of politeness. Outside maintain this respect.

Zhou Ning said helplessly: "It's just to discuss the Weibo gift-giving meeting and the annual meeting prize meeting. It doesn't matter if I'm not here. Tell me quickly, what's the matter."

Zhou Xun then said: "It was my mother who fell down the steps when she took Zhou Xu shopping. Now I am in the Affiliated Hospital of H University. My uncle and my father are not in City C, and the nanny has also returned to his hometown. Only Zhou Xu is in the hospital..."

When Zhou Ning heard this, she blushed with anger, "I was hesitating about such a big matter just now, I'll go to the hospital right away, I can just call Zhou Xu, right?"

Zhou Xun said: "Yes, the specific situation, you can ask Zhou Xu first, you said you are Zhou Xu's friend, first help me look at the situation, I am afraid that Zhou Xu can't do it alone in the hospital. Come on. I'll see if I can drive back now, and if I can, I'll be there in the morning."

Zhou Ning immediately stopped him and said, "That road is so dangerous, it's best not to drive at night. If something happens to you, what do you want me to do? Besides, my aunt is in the hospital. You will arrive tomorrow morning and tomorrow afternoon. What a difference."

Zhou Xun said: "But it's hard for me here, I just check the situation first, if there is a bus that can go at night, I can take the bus."

After the two had a good talk, Zhou Ning went to tell the employees of the company, asking them to continue to discuss a result and formulate a plan, and he took the first step to deal with matters.

Zhou Ning drove to the hospital. According to what Zhou Xu told him, she went to the ward. Zhou's mother had already had the stitches done and was sitting on the hospital bed to receive the needles.

This hospital ward is very tight. Mother Zhou lived in a deluxe double room and was sitting there drowsily. When Zhou Xu heard the knock on the door, she hurried to open the door. When she saw Zhou Ning, she breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, she breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Zhou Ning with twinkling eyes, smiled at him, and whispered: "Brother Ning, come in quickly, my mother has finished the operation and is now getting an injection. The doctor said that it will be ready tomorrow." Discharge."

Zhou Ning didn't go in for a while, and asked in a low voice, "Auntie, isn't it very important?"

Zhou Xu's eyes darkened, and she said, "It's just scratches on the body, the face is more serious, there was a long gash on the forehead, and six stitches were needed."

Zhou Ning heard that it was not particularly serious, so she breathed a sigh of relief and followed Zhou Xu into the ward. He was holding the fruit he bought at the fruit shop in the hospital. Soon, gauze was wrapped on his forehead, and his face was haggard.

Zhou Ning had only met her from a distance before, but seeing her now, she didn't feel strange.

The stitches on Zhou's mother's forehead started to hurt. Looking at Zhou Ning, her eyes were a little dull, showing doubts, not knowing who this person was.

Zhou Xu introduced: "Mom, this is my friend Brother Ning. If the doctor has anything to do later, there will be one more person to take care of him."

Zhou Ning put down the fruit and greeted, "Auntie, how do you feel? Do you want to drink water? Do you want to lie down?"

Zhou's mother looked at him, then went to Zhou Xu, and found that Zhou Xu's eyes were shining, she said to Zhou Xu: "I feel dizzy when sitting, let's lie down first."

In fact, Zhou Ning, as a strange adult man, is obviously inappropriate to take care of Zhou's mother in this way, but he and Zhou Xu helped Zhou's mother to lie down very thoughtfully, put a pillow for her, made a quilt for her, and put the infusion Putting her hands away, she also covered her lightly with a quilt, and then asked Mother Zhou: "Auntie, do you feel better?"

Mother Zhou was dizzy, and she only blinked and fell asleep.

It was already dinner time, Zhou Ning asked Zhou Xu if he had eaten, and Zhou Xu said, "I don't have an appetite."

Zhou Ning said, "Let's order some porridge. Auntie can just eat some when she wakes up."

Zhou Xu nodded.

Zhou Ning ordered lean meat porridge and fish porridge from a highly rated Hong Kong-style restaurant, and ordered some side dishes.

Then I went to ask the doctor about the specific situation of Zhou's mother. In fact, it was not particularly serious. There was only a bruise on her body and no fractures, but there was a big cut on her forehead. Her nose was hit before, and she had a lot of nosebleeds.

Even if it's not serious, it's hard to suffer at this age anyway, and it's not easy for the scars on the face to heal when you get older. The doctor said: "We'll see if we can remove the scars at that time."

Zhou Ning kept these in mind, and when she returned to the ward, the takeaway had already been delivered, Zhou Ning asked Zhou Xu to eat some, after Zhou's mother woke up and was hungry again, Zhou Xu fed Zhou's mother some more.

When Zhou Xun walked out of the hospital, there was thick snow on the roadside outside, only the snow in the middle of the road had been shoveled off, and there were muddy marks rolled out by the wheels.

He went home and drove to the bus station. It was almost dusk and the bus station was deserted. He finally found a staff member and asked if there was a bus to C City. It’s sealed, even if you have to go during the day, you have to wear anti-slip belts, and you’re not allowed to go at night.”

"When can I leave during the day?"

"I don't know the specifics. I heard that it was 07:30 in the morning. The road was closed at 06:30 in the evening."

Zhou Xun drove to the traffic bureau again, and the time given by the other party was also from 07:30 in the morning to 06:30 in the evening.

Zhou Xun had no choice but to go back first, planning to drive back to City C the next day.

If it weren't for the fact that there were not many hospitals in this county, he really wouldn't be able to ask for leave.

Zhou Ning called him and told him about Zhou's mother, and Zhou Xun was a little relieved when he heard that it was not serious.

Zhou's father didn't arrive until eight o'clock in the evening. At this time, Zhou's mother had dinner and was already in better spirits. She sat there watching TV programs and diverted her attention a little so that she would not pay attention to the physical pain all the time.

When Zhou Xu introduced Zhou Ning to Zhou's father, she also said that she was her friend, but Zhou's father arrived, and Zhou Ning was not needed anymore. As an outsider, Zhou Ning should let him go back, but Zhou's parents didn't think of it for a while. As if, Zhou's father felt relieved after learning about his wife's situation in detail, but he didn't care too much about Zhou's mother and Zhou Xu's unacceptable disfigurement.

After that, Zhou Ning drove Zhou Xu home to pick up toiletries and clothes. There was no traffic jam at night, and it only took an hour to go back and forth.

After Zhou Ning and Zhou Xu left the hospital, Zhou's mother endured a headache and said to Zhou's father: "Although Zhou Ning's surname is also Zhou, the same surname is still a bit taboo, but he is very good in the world and in character. People are also thoughtful, young people nowadays are all grown up as only seedlings in their families, such a good young man is rare."

Zhou's father said: "Yes. I also think he is good, and he is also good-looking, like our Zhou family."

Zhou's mother also thought that Zhou Ning was good-looking, not only because she was good-looking, but also because she was close to her eyes, so she smiled, "Zhou Xu is already 24 years old. I was worried that she would have a foreign boyfriend and would not come back to China. Now it seems that there is no need to worry. .”

Father Zhou also meant the same thing.

So when Zhou Ning drove Zhou Xu back to the hospital again, Zhou's father started talking to Zhou Ning, asking him what he did, his family situation and so on.

I heard Zhou Ning said that he opened a food company and a Taobao store. His parents divorced early, and he grew up with his grandmother. Zhou's father valued him and said: "It's not easy for young people to break into this business by themselves. Easy."

Because Zhou's father is also in business, the two have a lot of common topics. They talked until eleven o'clock in the evening, Zhou's mother fell asleep, and Zhou's father said to Zhou Ning under Zhou Xu's hint: "Zhou Ning, I’m really bothering you today, and it’s too late at this time, so you should go back first. Zhou Xu and I are too busy.”

Zhou Ning said, "If you need anything else, just tell me."

Zhou's father said: "I'll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, and it's okay. You often come to my house to play."

Zhou Ning responded with a smile, and was sent out of the hospital by Zhou Xu.

At the entrance of the hospital, Zhou Ning asked Zhou Xu to go back first: "It's so late, it's not safe outside, you should go back first."

Zhou Xu waved to him: "Be careful on the road, too." It was the familiarity and kindness of the whole family.

It's no wonder that Zhou's father and Zhou's mother misunderstood that Zhou Ning was Zhou Xu's boyfriend. Zhou Xu, although she usually laughs and laughs, seems to be easy-going with everyone, and she is beautiful, so she is very popular with men, but in fact, she She always played with girls, and was courted enough by boys since she was a child, so she was always alienated from boys, and basically had no male friends, but she got very close to Zhou Ning this day, and she even unconsciously looked like Acting like a baby with Zhou Ning like Zhou Xun, even holding his hand, how could Zhou's father and Zhou mother not misunderstand such a close behavior.

Zhou's mother's situation is really not serious. She could have been discharged from the hospital the night before, but the doctor ordered her to stay an extra night and was discharged the next day.

When I got home, I settled Zhou's mother and asked the nanny to come back early. Zhou's father made lunch by himself and sat at the dining table. Zhou's mother said kindly to Zhou Xu: "Sister, your father and I feel that Zhou Ning This person is good, if you are boyfriend and girlfriend, you can open up to us and say, bring Zhou Ning into the house, it is considered that you have passed the bright road, and you will be easy to get along with in the future."

Zhou Xu almost laughed out loud, Zhou's father and Zhou's mother saw her like this, Zhou's mother frowned and said: "It's weird, what's so funny."

"You guys really think Brother Ning is pretty good." Zhou Xu said with burning eyes.

Zhou's father said: "He is a real person. He is hard-working and not impetuous. Young people like you are not bad in your generation."

Zhou's mother said: "It's enough to match you, a crazy girl."

Zhou Xu lowered her head and grinned, then suddenly raised her head and said, "He's my brother's boyfriend."
